Line 12:
* [[Action Girl]]: Jolyne, and also {{spoiler|Elaine}}.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]: The goal was to create one, and it finally happened when {{spoiler|Garma's death was prevented}}
* [[Anti -Villain]]: Most of the Federation.
* [[Badass Normal]]: [[Mobile Suit Gundam 0080 War in The Pocket (Anime)|Bernard Wiseman]] has no Newtype powers, and he only uses a grunt unit. {{spoiler|He's come closer to killing Amuro than even Char.}}
** {{spoiler|Bernie has also managed to successfully [[Gundamjack|hijack Gundam Alex]] and finish off the Midnight Pixy Death Squad}}
Line 23:
*** {{spoiler|"Tell Boss I'm free now."}}
*** {{spoiler|"I have a going away present from my father to you, Gihren."}}
* [[Big Screwed -Up Family]]: "With all due respect sir, your brother's kind of a dick."
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: {{spoiler|Nachtmaren- Night Horses}}
** Also- EL MUERTO GIGANTE!
Line 29:
* [[BLAM Episode]]: Episode 17 is significantly darker than usual, and the events of it have never been mentioned again.
* [[Black Best Friend]]: Zolomon is a positive example of this trope.
* [[Cluster F -Bomb]]: David apparently is found of this trope when drunk.
** {{spoiler|"FUCKING REVENGE YOU MOTHERFUCKER."}}
* [[Colony Drop]]: The Christmas Special. {{spoiler|Also, Ghiren seems to be interested in the possibility of a second one...}}
Line 38:
* [[Famous Last Words]]: "MOTHERFUCKERS! I JUST BOUGHT A BOOOOOOAAAAAAAAT!!!!!"(From the Christmas Special, by Wolfgang Strauss's former superior, Sargeant Khenni)
** {{spoiler|"Casval, you!?"}}
* [[Genre Savvy]]: [[Bond One -Liner|"Kill first, then quip."]]
* [[Gundamjack]]: Been tossed around numerous times. {{spoiler|Hovis actually snags a Guncannon II in the Second Jaburo attack}}
* [[Glass Cannon]]: The Death Wasp team specializes with these kinds of suits, and Zeon has Kampfers.
Line 44:
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: Gundam in general is the reason for this trope's existence.
* [[Improbable Piloting Skills]]: Lister didn't know he had a targeting computer. He was kicking too much ass without it.
* [[ItsIt's Personal]]: {{spoiler|Lister gives a speech quite like this after Hovis is killed}}
* [[Its Raining Men]]: The very first episode features this.
* [[Killed Off for Real]]: {{spoiler|[[Modern Warfare|Ramirez]], the Black Tri-Stars, and Hovis. And now Zoloman}}
Line 52:
* [[Mind Rape]]: Being a Newtype against the EXAM System is like being a Japanese schoolgirl in the octopus tank.
* [[Military Brat]]: {{spoiler|Or in Lister's case, terrorism brat}}
* [[Mid -Season Upgrade]]: Lister goes through many of these, the main one being from the {{spoiler|Act-Zaku to the Nacht-Zaku}}
* [[Multi -Armed and Dangerous]]: The Gyan Eisvogel, or more accurately, the Gyan Skullfucker.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: Used very frequently. Almost always one per episode.
* [[Nuclear Option]]: As much as the Antarctica Treaty prohibits it, this seems to be the Nachtmaren unofficial answer to everything. {{spoiler|GODDAMMIT GHIREN WHO WOULD EVEN GIVE YOU ACCESS TO THESE THINGS IN THE FIRST PLACE}}
* [[Off the Rails]]: This is the whole point of the quest, at least in terms of official UC Canon.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Pretty much everyone's reaction to seeing a Gundam. Also, realizing that destroying half of Jaburo caused the Federation to begin mass production of Trojan Horses.
* [[Paper -Thin Disguise]]: {{spoiler|Elaine}}'s home colony did not allow women to enlist in the army, so she dons a fake mustache(of dubious quality) and enlists as a man. Although she managed to have her identity go unquestioned through sheer luck, when being interviewed for recruitment by Natcherman, David saw through it immediately.
* [[Putting On the Reich]]: [[Complete Monster|Ghiren]] and anyone remotely associated with him. Apologized seems to treat the rest of Zeon more like WWI Germany.
* [[Real Robot]]: Obviously, given the source material.
